Websites that rule – Part 12 [the YouTube channel edition]

It sounds cliché, but it’s hard to believe it’s been more than a year since I did one of these.  This installment of my Websites That Rule series is a bit of a departure, in that it’s not individual websites, per se, but channels from a single website: YouTube.  I’ve become a Big Tech Skeptic … More Websites that rule – Part 12 [the YouTube channel edition]

A decade (and more) in the life of a wheat germaphobe

  So, I’m thinking more Classic Kitty.  And (per usual) I’m feeling helpful 😉 Some of y’all may know that I’m coming up on 14 years in the gluten-free books.  I’m gluten-free by necessity for life, because I have Celiac Disease’s evil twin that mimics MS. Good times lol. Since 2010, and probably before that, … More A decade (and more) in the life of a wheat germaphobe

Things I’ve learned watching true crime and cop shows

For the past year or so (reference point: December 7, 2017 – this was buried in my drafts, I’m just dusting it off), I’ve engaged in this strange habit of watching true crime documentaries at night.  By their nature, they deal in violent subject matter that gets the normal person’s adrenaline pumping and keeps them … More Things I’ve learned watching true crime and cop shows

MIGA (Make the internet great again) Part 2

Much has remained the same since I wrote the original post in this now-two-post “series”, but…it’s just as true that much has changed. Time for an update.  I’d be remiss if I didn’t provide one, for this is technology, after all.  And technology is trending toward evil.  The clue was when Google quietly stepped away … More MIGA (Make the internet great again) Part 2

Plant Parenthood

I mentioned sprouts in my most recent post.  How they’ve been not only fun to grow, but also very therapeutic and uplifting and empowering for me. So, I thought I’d share! Sprouts are incredibly nutrient-dense.  They go well in salads, sandwiches, tacos, burritos, and even taste yummy by themselves!  They come in a variety of … More Plant Parenthood

Whiskers, Tango, Foxtrot?? (Or, how to combine cats)

I know the scenario all-too-well…  You have a cat (or more than one).  You want to adopt another one (or more) additional cats.  (Hell, the Crazy Cat Lady stereotype didn’t emerge from nowhere, right?) Here’s the deal… If you’ve never brought unfamiliar cats into a household with existing cats before, you might be in for … More Whiskers, Tango, Foxtrot?? (Or, how to combine cats)

Websites that rule ~ Part 10 [the mostly science-y edition]

It hasn’t exactly been a long time since I’ve written a post of this type, but the links started piling up pretty quickly, so I figured I’d better write the next “installment”.  This particular “edition” took on a markedly scientific theme, but don’t worry – although somewhat monotonous (science, brain, science, brain, health, science, etc), … More Websites that rule ~ Part 10 [the mostly science-y edition]

What I have learned about mosquitos 

I’ve been swimming in some deep–and deeply personal–topics lately.  Between the mystical veils of Samhain (on the bright side) and the recent “Me Too” hubbub (on the dark side), it’s been a heavy week, especially where the Me Too material is concerned.  That shizz really does a number on one’s headspace. So, let’s brighten things … More What I have learned about mosquitos
